IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Cancer and Reproductive Harm – www.P65Warnings.ca.gov
DANGER

a colorless, odorless, poison gas. Breathing carbon monoxide
will cause nausea, dizziness, fainting or death.
If you start to feel dizzy or weak, get to fresh air immediately.
OPERATE THE WATER PUMP OUTDOORS ONLY IN A WELL
VENTILATED AREA AND POINT EXHAUST AWAY.
DO NOT operate the water pump inside any building, including
garages, basements, crawlspaces and sheds, enclosure
or compartment, including the storage compartment of a
recreational vehicle.
DO NOT allow exhaust fumes to enter a confined area through
windows, doors, vents or other openings.
DANGER
Using an engine indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES. Engine
exhaust contains carbon monoxide. This is a poison you cannot
see or smell.
NEVER use inside a home or garage, EVEN IF doors and
windows are open.
ONLY use OUTSIDE and far away from windows, doors,
and vents.
Install battery-operated carbon monoxide alarms or plug-in
carbon monoxide alarms with battery back-up according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
DANGER
Rotating parts can entangle hands, feet, hair, clothing and/or
accessories. Traumatic amputation or severe laceration can
result.
Keep hands and feet away from rotating parts.
Tie up long hair and remove jewelry.
Operate equipment with guards in place.
DO NOT wear loose-fitting clothing, dangling drawstrings or
items that could become caught.
WARNING
Spark from removed spark plug wire can result in fire or
electrical shock.
When servicing the water pump:
Disconnect the spark plug wire and place it where it cannot
contact the plug or any other metal object.
DO NOT check for spark with the plug removed.
Use only approved spark plug testers.
WARNING
Contact with electrical power source can cause electric shock
or burn.
NEVER spray in the direction of or near a power source/
electrical outlet.
WARNING
Running engines produce heat. Severe burns can occur on
contact. Combustible material can catch fire on contact.
DO NOT touch hot surfaces.
Avoid contact with hot exhaust gases.
Allow equipment to cool before touching.
Maintain at least 3 ft. (91.4 cm) of clearance on all sides to
ensure adequate cooling.
Maintain at least 5 ft. (1.5 m) of clearance from combustible
materials.
DANGER
DO NOT pump gasoline, fuel, fuel-oil mixtures, detergents,
acids, chemicals, beverages, pesticides, fertilizers or any other

DO NOT use hoses or connectors that are worn, damaged or
frayed.
DO NOT allow children or unqualified persons to operate or
service the water pump.
DO NOT open top plug or drain plug.
WARNING
Rapid retraction of the starter cord will pull hand and arm
towards the engine faster than you can let go. Unintentional
startup can result in entanglement, traumatic amputation or
laceration. Broken bones, fractures, bruises or sprains could
result.
When starting engine, pull the starter cord slowly until
resistance is felt and then pull rapidly to avoid kickback.
WARNING
DO NOT pump salt, sludge, sewer, sea, or any other type of
water containing solid material.
CAUTION
Exceeding the pump specification for total head can damage
the pump and/or hose kits connected to it.
DO NOT modify the pump in any way. DO NOT attempt to
exceed the rated flow. Attempting to increase the rated flow
may damage the unit and/or shorten its life.
NOTICE
DO NOT run the pump dry.
Running the pump dry can destroy the pump seals and will
void the warranty. If the pump was running while dry, stop
the engine and allow it to cool thoroughly before filling the
chamber with water.
CAUTION
Improper treatment or use of the water pump can damage it,
shorten its life and void your warranty.
Use the water pump only for intended uses.
Operate only on level surfaces.
DO NOT expose water pump to excessive moisture, dust,
or dirt.
DO NOT allow any material to block the cooling slots.

66520 - 2 IN. (5 CM) SEMI-TRASH PUMP IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Fuel Safety
DANGER
GASOLINE AND GASOLINE VAPORS ARE HIGHLY
FLAMMABLE AND EXPLOSIVE.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
Gasoline and gasoline vapors:
–Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive.
–Gasoline can cause a fire or explosion if ignited.
–Gasoline is a liquid fuel but its vapors can ignite.
–Gasoline is a skin irritant and needs to be cleaned up
immediately if spilled on skin or clothes.
–Gasoline has a distinctive odor, this will help detect potential
leaks quickly.
–In any petroleum gas fire, flames should not be extinguished
unless by doing so the fuel supply valve can be turned OFF.
This is because if a fire is extinguished and a supply of fuel is
not turned OFF, then an explosion hazard could be created.
–Gasoline expands or contracts with ambient temperatures.
Never fill the gasoline tank to full capacity, as gasoline needs
room to expand if temperatures rise.
When adding or removing gasoline:
DO NOT light or smoke cigarettes.
Turn the engine off and let it cool for at least two minutes before
removing the gasoline cap. Loosen the cap slowly to relieve
pressure in the tank.
Only fill or drain gasoline outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
DO NOT pump gasoline directly into the engine at the gas station.
Use an approved container to transfer the fuel to the engine.
DO NOT overfill the gasoline tank.
Always keep gasoline away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights,
heat and other sources of ignition.
When starting the engine:
DO NOT attempt to start a damaged engine.
Make certain that the gasoline cap, air filter, spark plug, fuel lines
and exhaust system are properly in place.
Allow spilled gasoline to evaporate fully before attempting to start
the engine.
Make certain that the water pump is resting firmly on level ground.
When operating the water pump:
DO NOT move or tip the water pump during operation.
DO NOT tip the water pump or allow fuel or oil to spill.
When transporting or servicing the water pump:
Make certain that the fuel valve is in the OFF position, the gasoline
tank is empty.
Disconnect the spark plug wire.
When storing the water pump:
Store away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat and other
sources of ignition.
Do not store water pump or gasoline near furnaces, water heaters,
or any other appliances that produce heat or have automatic
ignitions.
WARNING
NEVER use a gasoline container, gasoline tank, or any other
fuel item that is broken, cut, torn or damaged.

66520 - 2 IN. (5 CM) SEMI-TRASH PUMP ASSEMBLY
Add Engine Oil
WARNING
DO NOT attempt to crank or start the engine before it has been
properly filled with the recommended type and amount of oil.
Damage to the water pump as a result of failing to follow these
instructions will void your warranty.
NOTICE
The engine rotor has a sealed, pre-lubricated ball bearing that
requires no additional lubrication for the life of the bearing.
NOTICE
The recommended oil type for typical use is 10W-30
automotive oil. However, using the listed conventional oils
shown in the “Recommended Engine Oil Type” chart may be
used for typical use including the first 5 hours of the break-in
run time period of the engine.
If running water pump in extreme temperatures, refer to the
“Recommended Engine Oil Type” chart.
1. Place the water pump on a flat, level surface.
2. Remove oil fill cap/dipstick to add oil.
3. Using a funnel, add up to 20.3 fl. oz (600 ml) of oil and

4. Check engine oil level before every use and add as needed.
MAX
OIL DIP STICK
NOTICE
Once oil has been added, a visual check should show oil about
1-2 threads from running out of the fill hole.
If using the dipstick to check oil level, DO NOT screw in the
dipstick while checking.
NOTICE
Check oil often during the break-in period. Refer to the
Maintenance section for recommended service intervals.
CAUTION
The engine is equipped with a low oil shut-off and will stop
when the oil level in the crankcase falls below the threshold
level.
NOTICE
The first 5 hours of run time is the break-in period for the
engine. During the break in period, it is recommended to use
standard automotive, non-synthetic blended oils. After the
break-in period, synthetic oil can be used but is not required.
Adjusting throttle setting will increase/ decrease engine speed
helping to seat piston rings. Avoid bogging or lugging the
engine down and avoid prolonged running at constant RPM.
After the 5-hour break-in period, change the oil.
NOTICE
Synthetic oil may be used after the 5 hour initial break-in
period. Using synthetic oil does not decrease the recommended

66520 - 2 IN. (5 CM) SEMI-TRASH PUMP ASSEMBLY
Add Fuel
DANGER
Gasoline vapors are highly flammable and extremely explosive.
DO NOT light or smoke cigarettes. Fire or explosion can cause
severe burns or death.
Only fill or drain fuel outdoors in a well-ventilated area. DO
NOT pump gasoline directly into the engine. Use an approved
container to transfer the fuel to the engine.
Never use a gasoline container, gasoline tank, or any other fuel
item that is broken, cut, torn or damaged.
DO NOT overfill the gasoline tank. Always keep fuel away from
sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat and other sources of
ignition.
Use clean, fresh, regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum
octane rating of 87 and an ethanol content of less than 10% by
volume. ybc
DO NOT mix oil with gasoline.
1. Place the water pump on a flat, level surface.
2. Remove the gasoline cap.
3. Slowly add gasoline to the tank. DO NOT OVERFILL. Gasoline
can expand after filling. A minimum of ¼ in. (6.4 mm) of
space left in the tank is required for gasoline expansion,
although more than ¼ in. (6.4 mm) is recommended. Gasoline
can be forced out of the tank as a result of expansion if
overfilled, and can affect the stable running condition of the
water pump.
4. Screw on the gasoline cap and wipe away any spilled fuel.
CAUTION
Use regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane rating
of 87 and an ethanol content of less than 10% by volume.
DO NOT light cigarettes or smoke when filling the tank.
DO NOT mix oil and gasoline.
Fill tank to approximately ¼ in. (6.4 mm) below the top of the
tank to allow for gasoline expansion.
DO NOT pump gasoline directly into the water pump at the
pump. Use an approved container to transfer the gasoline to
the water pump.
DO NOT fill tank indoors.
DO NOT fill tank when the engine is running or hot.
DO NOT overfill the tank.
WARNING
Pouring gasoline too fast through the fuel screen may result in
blow back of gasoline at the operator while filling.
NOTICE
Our engines work well with 10% or less ethanol blended
gasoline. When using ethanol-gasoline blends there are some
issues worth noting:
–Ethanol-gasoline blends can absorb more water than
gasoline alone.
–These ethanol blends can eventually separate, leaving
water or a watery goo in the tank, fuel valve and
carburetor. The compromised gasoline can be drawn into
the carburetor and cause damage to the engine and/or
create potential hazards.
–If a fuel stabilizer is used, confirm that it is formulated to
work with ethanol-gasoline blends.
–Any damages or hazards caused by using ethanol blended
gasoline higher than 10% by volume, improperly stored
gasoline, and/or improperly formulated stabilizers, are not
covered by manufacturer’s warranty.
It is advisable to always shut off the gasoline supply and
run the engine to starvation after each use. See Storage
instructions for extended non-use.

66520 - 2 IN. (5 CM) SEMI-TRASH PUMP OPERATION
OPERATION
Semi-Trash Pump Location
Place the semi-trash pump in a well ventilated area.
DO NOT place the semi-trash pump near vents or intakes where
exhaust fumes could be drawn into occupied or confined spaces.
Carefully consider wind and air currents when positioning semi-
trash pump.
This semi-trash pump must have at least 5 ft. (1.5 m) of clearance
from combustible material. Leave at least 3 ft. (91.4 cm) of
clearance on all sides of the semi-trash pump to allow for
adequate cooling, maintenance and servicing.
Place the pump on a level surface free from any obstructions or
potential hazards. The pump should be placed close to the water
level to ensure maximum pump performance.
TOTAL HEAD
DISCHARGE HEAD
SUCTION HEAD
Pump output will be affected by the type, length, and size of the
suction and discharge hoses. The pumping height, also known as
the total head, is the distance from the water level to the point of
discharge. As this distance increases, pump output decreases.
The discharge capacity is greater than the suction capacity.
Therefore, it is important that the suction head is less than the
discharge head.
The time required to draw water from the source to the pump
(self-priming time) can be decreased by minimizing the suction
head.
Connecting a Hose Kit
NOTICE
Both the intake and discharge ports are 2 in. (5.1 cm) NPT.
Please insure the connectors to the suction and discharge
hose are 2 in. (5.1 cm) NPT threaded.
Connect the Discharge Hose (Blue)
1. Locate (1) of the following: outlet hose adapter (C), gasket (A),
and outlet hose fitting (B) and align for assembly.
A
B
C
2. Thread the assembled connector to the outlet fitting (top of
pump).
NOTICE
Make sure the gasket is seated inside before threading the
adapter on.
3. Locate and slide the silver colored hose clamp
(marked 52-55) over the blue outlet hose.

16
66520 - 2 IN. (5 CM) SEMI-TRASH PUMP OPERATION
4. Slide the blue discharge hose over the outlet hose fitting.
NOTICE
You may use a small amount of dish soap on the outlet hose
fitting to help ease the outlet hose on the fitting. Work the
soap around the fitting with your finger. Then work the blue
hose on the outlet, by twisting and turning until it’s fully
seated.
5. Slide the hose clamp in place about midway on the outlet
hose adapter as shown. Tighten to 7.4±1.5 lbf-ft (10±2 Nm)
with a 10mm wrench. The hose clamp should be placed
behind the outlet adapter barbs on the smooth part of the
adapter.
Connect the Suction Hose (Green) and Suction Filter
1. Locate the following: cam lock coupler (coupler and fitting
together) (A), 54-57 marked hose clamps (B), Teflon® tape
(C), green suction hose (D) and align for assembly.
A
B
C

2. Cut ties and uncoil the green hose and use some weight to
help straighten the hose out. Best to do this on a warmer day
in the sun.
3. Separate the cam lock coupler and fitting. Align the green
hose to the coupler and mark the locations of the ribs on the
fitting.
4. Mark the second rib on the coupler on the hose.

17
66520 - 2 IN. (5 CM) SEMI-TRASH PUMP OPERATION
5. Lay the green hose side by side and place the clamp marked
54-57 in their approximate location.
6. Slide the clamps back and start to assemble the green hose
to cam lock coupler.
7. Insert the cam lock coupler in the green rigid suction hose

You may use a small amount of dish soap on the cam lock
coupler to help ease the green hose on the fitting. Work the
soap around the coupler with your finger. Then work the
green hose on the fitting, by twisting and turning until it’s fully
seated.
You may need to dip the green suction hose into boiling water
for 1 minute to install the hose as well. This will allow the
material to stretch some while assembling the green hose to
the cam lock coupler.
8. Slide the clamps marked 54-57 over cam lock coupler just
past the marks you made on the hose earlier.
9. Rotate and align the clamp bolts so you have clearance for
the cam levers to lock in place later.
10. Tighten each clamp to 11.1±1.5 lbf-ft (15±2 Nm) with a 10mm
socket and 3/8” drive ratchet until the clamp completely
tightens. If you do not have a torque wrench, hand tight then
¼ turn past full tight. This will need to be as tight as you can
make them.
11. Once tightened, visually confirm the hose is raised on the
ribs. This indicates you have it tight.

18
66520 - 2 IN. (5 CM) SEMI-TRASH PUMP OPERATION
12. Test connection is tight by twisting coupler in the hose to
make sure it doesn’t turn. If coupling turns, then tighten
clamps further until coupling won’t turn.
13. Wrap the green inlet clockwise with the Teflon®tape provided
with 4 complete wraps.
14. Thread the fitting over the tape and hand tighten. Use either
14” Channellock® or a pipe wrench with 2.5” (63.5mm)
opening min, hand tight then 1 1/2 turn past full tight. This is
critical to make sure the fitting is tight so you do not have air
leaks.
15. Attach the cam lock coupler to the fitting.
16. Lock in place with the cam levers.
NOTICE
If the cam levers do not clamp down completely, rotate and
align the clamp bolts so you have clearance for the cam levers
to lock. See step 9 earlier.

hose. Attach the strainer to the green suction hose.

19
66520 - 2 IN. (5 CM) SEMI-TRASH PUMP OPERATION
NOTICE
You may use a small amount of dish soap on the filter to help
ease the green hose on the filter. Work the soap around the
filter with your finger. Then work the green hose on the filter,
by twisting and turning until it’s fully seated.
20. Slide the clamp just before the end of the green hose.
21. Tighten the clamp to 7.4±1.5 lbf-ft (10±2 Nm) with a 10mm
wrench. If you do not have a torque wrench, hand tight then
¼ turn past full tight.
22. You should have everything connected.
Priming the Pump
NOTICE
DO NOT run the pump dry.
Running the pump dry can destroy the pump seals and will
void the warranty. If the pump was running while dry, stop
the engine and allow it to cool thoroughly before filling the
chamber with water.
Located on the outlet flange is the priming plug. Remove the
priming plug and fill pump body to the very top of outlet flange
with water. Reinstall the priming plug. As the engine starts up,
this will start the draw of liquid into the pump. Located within
the pump assembly is the one-way valve. As you prime the pump
housing this one-way flap valve shuts off the opening to the
suction hose. The priming process is only required when the pump
housing is not full of water.
NOTICE
Ensure the priming plug is secure before pump operation, if not
secure the priming plug could be ejected and water or other
liquids could be pumped through the top of the outlet flange.

Keep choke lever in “CHOKE” position for 2 pulls of the recoil
starter. After 2 pulls, move choke lever to the “RUN” position
for up to the next 3 pulls of the recoil starter. Too much choke
leads to spark plug fouling/engine flooding due to the lack of
incoming air. This will cause the engine not to start.
NOTICE
Pump performance can be adjusted using the throttle. To
decrease pump output, slide the throttle to the right. To
increase it, slide the throttle to the left.
WARNING
DO NOT remove either top, or drain (bottom) plugs while the
semi-trash pump is on and running.
Loss of pressure and suction will occur. Injury may also occur.
Stopping the Engine
1. Turn the fuel valve to the “OFF” position.
2. Let the engine run until fuel starvation has stopped the
engine. This usually takes a few minutes.
3. Move the throttle lever to slow position.
4. Press the engine switch to the “OFF” position.
Important: Always ensure that the fuel valve and the engine
switch are in the “OFF” position when the engine is not in use.
NOTICE
If the engine will not be used for a period of two (2) weeks or
longer, please see the Storage section for proper engine and
fuel storage.
Operation at High Altitude
The density of air at high altitude is lower than at sea level.
Engine power is reduced as the air mass and air-fuel ratio
decrease. Engine power and water pump output will be reduced
approximately 3½% for every 1000 ft. of elevation above sea
level. This is a natural trend and cannot be changed by adjusting
the engine. At high altitudes increased exhaust emissions can
also result due to the increased enrichment of the air fuel ratio.
Other high altitude issues can include hard starting, increased fuel
consumption and spark plug fouling.
To alleviate high altitude issues other than the natural power
loss, CPE can provide a high altitude carburetor main jet. The
alternative main jet and installation instructions can be obtained
by contacting our Technical Support Team. Installation instructions
are also available in the Technical Bulletin area of the CPE website.
The part number and recommended minimum altitude for the
application of the high altitude carburetor main jet is listed in the
table below.
In order to select the correct high altitude main jet it is necessary
to identify the carburetor model. For this purpose, a code is
stamped on the side of the carburetor. Select the correct high
altitude jet part number corresponding to the carburetor code
found on your particular carburetor.
